I traded in my ‘17. One reason was I did. It like the seat cushion. Found it too short. When they announced Recaros, first thing I did was have a salesman measure the cushion. When he told me it was close to an inch deeper, I immediately went to see it and bought it.

So the seats and the shocks are better. If I were you, for only 9k it’s a no brainer to get a brand new vehicle.

Almost an inch deeper seats. wtf? I would have traded in months ago if I knew that. But now Im going to wait for a 2020. Heard a rumor that the seats will be 1 1/4" deeper.

So as of right now I have a 2018 raptor pretty much fully loaded. Sticker was about $73k. The truck has been amazing, so much that in about 12 months I've put 23k miles on it. I have a local dealer that will give me 59k on trade and sell me the exact truck, color and all but a 19 for $68k..since MSRP has gone up that truck stickers for $75k.

Curious to hear thoughts...I havent seen the raptors discounted this heavily before and I think the trade number is strong and might be at the peak of what I can get.


UPDATE: I am pulling the trigger on the 19. The final details of the deal are as follows:
Trade: $57,500 - this was due to my fat fingers texting them the wrong mileage, I put 13k miles when it had 23k, I own that one.

The 19 had a sticker of $75,105 and I was able to get it for $64,994...I feel pretty good about that one.

So the 75K included ADM, correct?

No ADM, it was a heavily optioned supercrew with 802A, tech pack, beadlocks, pano roof, hood and side graphics, carbon fiber package, bed extender, etc. In northeast ohio ADM disappeared a while back

Wow! This is has got to be the best deal I've seen posted on the forum. Please share with us how you got $10,111 off a 19 Raptor?

Yep. That has to be a record. I figured that's why there had to be an ADM figured in.
